Should the world gang up on the USA to make them behave?

Question

And warn them that if they don't stop interferring in other nations' affairs, the countries of the world will boycott all American goods until the year 2020, stop all American ships from entering their ports, refuse entry to all American tourists, dismantle all American-made missiles, and last but not least, board up all McDonald outlets outside the USA.

Answer 1

The U.S. is formidable, but in isolation from the entire international community, they'd go belly up.

Answer 2

You severely underestimate the power of the United States in the world market. You also conveniently forget the enormous amount of foreign aid we supply to countries around the world, and not just impoverished nations at that. Another thing that seems to escape you is that many of those American-made missiles are providing protection in those countries that use them - they requested that we supply them and supply them we did. Dismantle them and who's mercy will they be at? If they could produce missiles to rival American-made ones, why did they request ours to begin with? You can't possibly be thinking that anyone is going to dismantle American-made missles that belong to us? Who's got a stick that big? American tourists spend billions around the world every year. Who is it going to hurt to take those billions away? Not us, that's for sure.

I do not agree with this war in Iraq, I think it's the worst move any President has made in my lifetime, and I've got a half-century under my belt. But, I do know one thing. When a country halfway around the world is in big trouble, they come to us - there are hundreds of examples. Sorry, but they can't have it both ways. Wean yourselves from the American breast and maybe then talk of anti-American sanctions might carry some weight. Until then? Deal with it. There are still people alive today that remember in a very personal way that if it wasn't for the United States a great deal of the world might be speaking German.

Answer 3

It isn't the USA that cannot behave. It is the rest of the world, mainly the muslim world. Maybe the world should tell the Mulims to stop interferring with other countries and killing innocent civilians and then we wouldn't have to go stop them. IF there were about 1 billion fewer muslims in the world there would fewer wars. Maybe that should be the goal for the rest of the world, convert radical hate filled mulims to a kinder less violent religion.

Answer 4

Rolling on the floor laughing after reading all the posts. No one even tried to think why would other nations hate them?Is it right that other people don't like strangers destroying their homes and families? The answer of everybody was-we can do anything and we are only conserned about ourselves. What a truely kind and Christian nation!What a nice destiny we all have - get drown in cheap fast food!
If seriously America has the biggest debt on earth, dollar is falling, their economy is weakning thanks to the "hooly war" they got into. This is the beginning of the end, it'll just go more slow than most of the world wants but still there's a hope that one day we can live in a free and happy planet without being obliged to wear poor taste shorts and eat unhealthy hamburgers and watch desperately dum movies.
P.S. before I saw this discussions I used to protect americans saying that not all of them are cruel or ignorant or fascisticly nationalistic, that it's just politics that make them look like that, now I see i was wrong...they really are what they are told about.

Answer 5

Only in your dreams jack. You may not like some of the things the U.S. does but every superpower in history has done the same things. The U.S. is no different, and like all empires, this one will eventually collapse. As strong as England may have been in the 1500-1600's, where are they now? The Roman empire, the Mongols. Each century or 2 has countries that lead through their military, their technology. This is the U.S.'s time. History has shown that might does not make right, the mighty just think so. Grin and bare it...

Answer 6

YES!!

Our government is the true terrorists!!!!!!!!

And, in all actuality the whole world wouldn't even have to. Have China not import or export anything to/from America for a month and our government would be on their knees begging.

And to the idiot who said Palestine needs to behave, how would you feel if someone came and dragged you out of your house, raped your mom and sister and killed your dad. Stuck you in a tent in some other country, and told you it was because they needed somewhere to put a whole bunch of people that no one else in the world wants in their country???
Palestine will prevail, I hope that Israel ceases to exist!
Read your history books.

USAll the Way-you are an ignorant f**k. Learn more about what America and Christians have done in the past. Christians have killed about 10 times more people that Muslims have, and this problem is not a Christian vs. Muslim issue. American Muslims love this country, abide by the rules and laws of this nation, and contribute to the economy.
Go to the library people! Turn off the TV and open a damn book for once in your life!

Answer 7

Yea right that will NEVER happen:

First of all countries are tooo influenced by us, and if we take away are McDonalds and walmarts. well there will be hell

we give some countries support with money and services, take that away and some countries will be in debt with a famine sweeping up

if you try to attack us, we will attack you back. trust me! if heaven forbid there was a draft nobody would stand a chance (all other super powers would just stand and watch)

We are a super power and we cannot behave to your standards, we can only do what we feel is best for us! dont like us? then stop asking traveling over here and working here, stop buying american products, stop trading and stop investing. you will see that people are more dependant on America then people think!

Answer 8

Their resentment at being shown up as being of a decrease order through those with whom they'd desire to proportion their community and having to stay on the factor of people who're their psychological superiors,i.e. civilised white human beings. They lack the disposition and/or the intelligence to acquire academic skills and characteristic a reliable aversion to stable paintings. even regardless of the indisputable fact that they decide directly to laze around boozing and ''smoking''!! all day they nevertheless sense that they'd desire to benefit from the same existence-form as people who paintings troublesome, in basic terms of their case they scouse borrow, rob and kill to accomplish that purpose. Violence is a congenital area of the black's character and psyche'. it particularly is the reason, no different stupid 'politically suitable' euphemisms.

Answer 9

And the whole world would suffer... Think what it would be like being denied access to American drugs and medical break-through, the security America offers to all countries... Simply knowing America is there and would intervene if necessary, has kept many a would-be aggressor in check. Are you going to cut off American news services? Do you understand how much the rest of the world depends on America?

Answer 10

No, because the rest of the world needs the US especially when other countries need help with an overpowering enemy, or when a country needs help due to a natural disaster.

Answer 11

Go ahead boycott American goods, most our stuff is made in China etc. these days because corporations are taking over the country. Last year was the first time America imports more then we export. Just sit back and wait, let conservative economics kill the dollar value.
